Notes

The edited AUD source occasionally alternates between two different sound fields, mostly between songs, sometimes during songs. I chose to exclude these AUD edits for set 1, but incorporated them for set 2. Soundtrack Pro was used to remove some digital flaws in the SBD during Candyman and Jack Straw.

Not claiming any knowledge of where this show stands in the dead hierarchy but this Seamon's matrix has insanely beautiful deep bass - listened to it under appropriate conditions (good stereo and cognitive enhancement) and was physically flattened by some of those bass notes... I will play this to friends if I want to try and get them to dip beyond Sunshine Daydream or May 77 and to get taste of sweet 74.... damn! Plus I love the audience noise and tuning.... so good!!

Saw Darkstar Orchestra in San Diego on 2/24/18, they were so excellent. I am blown away by these fans as they are dedicated like they are watching The Dead!

Indeed, a beautiful recording. The show is not as good as the night before.

Subject: Beautiful Matrix

It's striking to listen to this Seamons issue and the Tobin matrix. This one blends very well while the Tobin does not. And it's rather surprising to hear the differences in production, which I wasn't expecting. This matrix is very well done with an expertly spliced segment during Rider that I have to commend Hunter for. I'm adding this to the collection along with the beautiful soundboard. I normally don't keep two productions but, they are both excellent in their own way. Highly recommend this and the board.

Another great Winterland show from 74 with perfect MTX quality.tight versions of all songs played..Nice US blues opener with a China>Rider which is always worth attention..Loser, and a nice 74 PITB ,18minute ride with jams aplenty..Set 2 has a WRS which i loved while they were still doing it.Dark Star>Dew is a major event here clocking in around 50mins of pure magic...I only give ratings for what i think are the best shows available.Nuff said,thanks folks.
